Storm Drain Markings Keep Tampa Bay Beautiful staff and volunteers installed 1,000 storm drain markers on drains throughout Downtown Tampa, Armature Works, and Bayshore. These markers serve as a reminder that the drains lead directly to our waterways, aiming to discourage people from disposing of trash in them. Storm drain marking is crucial because anything that enters the drains, from litter to pollutants, eventually flows into our rivers, bays, and oceans, harming marine life and degrading water quality. By raising awareness, we hope to prevent pollution at its source and protect the health and beauty of our local ecosystems.
